There are many quotes about innovation and how it is fostered. I have several hanging in my office. We recently looked to these as we were deciding the name for our new breakfast series. Our brainstorming kept coming back to the concept that ideas are the beginning - they create the "spark" that fuels innovation. Good ideas... bad ideas... ideas that need time to marinate... etc. It seems undeniable (and simplistic to say) that innovation begins with ideas. Too often we don't give ourselves space and time to explore ideas for the sake of exploring ideas. If we did, what might "spark"?
The Innovation District is launching a new breakfast series called Morning Sparks: Innovation X-change. This series will be the opportunity to explore emerging technologies and concepts, learn about District partners' related efforts and engage in thoughtful (and hopefully spirited) discussions about the future.
We are looking forward to seeing what "sparks" at our first Morning Sparks on April 24th. For more details click here.
Have a great spring!
